NFL analyst Jason Reid forecasts a potential MVP season for Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes in 2026. Despite a knee surgery that halted his 2025 season, Mahomes aims to rebound, supported by a strong offensive line and a rushing attack led by Kenneth Walker III. Last season, Mahomes recorded 22 touchdown passes and 11 interceptions in 14 games before the injury. His aspiration for a third MVP award aligns him with only six players in NFL history who have achieved this feat.
- •Mahomes underwent surgery for torn ligaments in his left knee.
- •He finished the 2025 season with 22 touchdowns and 11 interceptions.
- •The Chiefs aim to improve after missing the playoffs last season.
- •Mahomes could become the seventh player with three MVP awards.
